Hello,
I am looking for a seal design that would seal between the end plate and cylindrical
section of a pressure vessel .
The vessel is made of hastelloy X and has a working pressure of 4000 psi and
a working temperature of 1600 deg F.

Excuse the old school graphics but the idea is to give you a general idea of what
I am trying to seal.
I have found a graphite sheet material to use in a face to face seal.

Are the record groove cuts in the face necessary to keep the seal from moving.
Is there a formula for calculating how much clamping force would be necessary.
Any help would be appreciated,
Greg
